EU launches public consultation into fears about future of internet

“The internet’s impact on our world is already enormous and will accelerate even more in the coming years with the rise of #artificial intelligence, the bridging of the physical and digital worlds and the pervasive use of data,” said Jesús Villasante, a commission official. “We believe the digital world should respect the same values and rights we enjoy in the physical one. We also believe Europe has the potential to be a key player in internet matters even if many important decisions are taken elsewhere.”
